A few white clouds were far away in the clear blue sky, under the green sycamore trees, a burst of gentle laughter broke the silence of the small courtyard, Mu Anzhi lay down in the armchair as if he was half paralyzed, and put down the tea in his hand.
"Just you girls, you have to fight over every little thing."
"Of course we will fight."
Li Yuhua pinched a butter-contained snail and took a bite. Mu Anzhi saw her eating the fruit carefree and warned her uneasily, "Don't have any contact with the Lu family, especially the Crown Princess, she is a bitch among bitches.
You want to make her stronger, but she doesn't know why she hates you."
"If I'm afraid of her being jealous, I won't let her be strong." Li Yuhua raised her eyebrows, with a cold smile in her eyes, "She still wants to compete with me!"
Li Yuhua didn't take Lu Yun seriously at all. She asked Mu Anzhi, "It's the Lan family who should be on the same side as the Queen Mother, but instead they stood on the wall of the Lu family. She asked me to scare her, and her family was in trouble."
"His family is like this. There are not many capable people in the court. They are very cautious. If you want to say it, they are timid. They are afraid of hitting their heads when a leaf falls. In the past, they were not afraid of the Lu family. Now that the East Palace has been established, Mr. Lan's house is so cautious.
How dare you offend the Lu family with your appearance." Mu Anzhi also somewhat looked down on Mr. Lan's mansion, "It's good for my cousin, I know it's good to be an honest person."
Li Yuhua picked up the second butter-soaked snail and asked intentionally, "How is the Marquis of Yong'an's house? This time we get married, Mrs. Marquis of Yong'an will be my bride-to-be."
Mu Anzhi sat upright from his semi-paralyzed armchair position with an "ouch!", looked at Li Yuhua in disbelief and said, "I don't think Mr. Xu has such a big reputation to invite the Yong'an Marquis Mansion!"
"He didn't invite it, it was Marquis Lu who helped. Are Marquis Lu and the Lu family the same family?"
Mu Anzhi frowned and said nothing. The sun shone through the gaps in the sycamore leaves. Li Yuhua moved forward slightly and asked, "What's wrong?"
"This doesn't make sense. Marquis Lu has never been in contact with your family. Why is he doing so much to your family?" Mu An said.
"Is there a conspiracy?"
"No." Mu Anzhi waved his hand, "Marquis Lu is in charge of northern Xinjiang, Marquis Yong'an is also an important minister of the court, and Mrs. Marquis Yong'an is also famous for her strong temperament. What are they planning on you?"
"Tell me more about it."
"This matter is also a rare thing in the imperial capital. Marquis Lu is the direct nephew of Duke Lu. He is actually the eldest son of Lu, but his father died early and died in the battle in Northern Xinjiang. Later, the Lu family gave him a title for his merit, and Duke Lu had the highest merit.
, Lu Hou followed. The Lu family was very prominent for a while. In the past, people said that their uncle and nephew were good people, but then Lu Hou suddenly stopped interacting with the family. Your wife is Lu Hou’s aunt, Fengyi
The palace is also his aunt, and Marquis Lu never interacts with her. Even when she was conferred the title of queen, according to the law, the queen's mother-in-law should confer the title of Duke Cheng'en. Naturally, this title will fall on Marquis Lu. He repeatedly resigned from the title. Otherwise, now he
He is a duke and a duke. However, since he is a real marquis, I don’t think I will take the fictitious title of Cheng Enjue seriously."
"Then the old lady of the Lu family is his grandmother, and he doesn't go to visit?"
"I've never heard of him." Mu An curled up one leg on the chair and swayed the other slightly, picking up the tea cup and taking a sip, "He has been in Northern Xinjiang for many years. The Lu family has actually been divided into clans, and the Marquis of Lu
It is a separate portal."
"Can uncles and nephews be separated into clans?" Li Yuhua's eyes suddenly widened, "Our village's Lao Bai family has not been divided into clans for eighteen generations. These are the Lu family's uncles and nephews. Did you hear it wrong? It should be
Will we separate the families?"
"There's nothing wrong with my ears, let alone all these years ago, how could I even hear this wrong?" Mu Anzhi took a bite of the cake and ate it, "It's absolutely true."
"Then it's no wonder we no longer have contact with each other." Li Yuhua came to the conclusion after thinking, "There must be a big suspicion, otherwise we can't separate the sect. If we separate the sect, we will be strangers."
A stream of sycamore leaves fluttered to the ground. Li Yuhua said, "That makes even more sense. Could it be that Marquis Lu is secretly a close friend of my father?"
"You're really going to put a lot of money on Mr. Xu's face. No matter how you look at him, Mr. Xu doesn't look like someone with such ability." Mu Anzhi said rudely.
Li Yuhua served tea to Mu Anzhixu, "If this doesn't make sense, let's not talk about it for now. Tell me about Marquis Yong'an. I heard that Mrs. Marquis Yong'an is a strange person."
"That's of course. Madam Yong'an Hou is well-known, and she and Yong'an Hou are a famous loving couple. The imperial grandmother also likes her very much. Aunt Fengyang's eldest daughter is the heir apparent of Yong'an Hou's mansion."
"I think Prince Yong'an is also very outstanding."
"Yes. Li Heng's appearance, talent and knowledge are both excellent. He has always been a popular candidate for a son-in-law in the imperial capital."
"There's something I still can't figure out."
"What's up?"
"It's the royal family's matter of choosing the prince's concubine. You see, Miss Lan has chosen the second prince, and Miss Lu has chosen the prince. In other words, they are all in person. The Queen Mother never thought of choosing a prince from her mother's family at the beginning.
Concubine?" Li Yuhua followed Mu Anzhi's example and sat with her legs curled up, "We folk are also very particular about kissing each other. I know that the Queen Mother doesn't like Fengyi Palace. Let's talk privately. The prince is also the Queen Mother's grandson, although he is not the grandson of the Queen Mother.
As if he loves you so much, he is also his own grandson. Why did he choose Miss Lu as the crown princess?"
"Oh, what are you thinking about all the time?" Mu Anzhi touched Li Yuhua's head. He didn't have a big head, but he was quite good at thinking about things. Li Yuhua smiled, "Don't change the subject, talk quickly!"
Mu Anzhi said awkwardly, "There's nothing to say."
"I knew there was something going on when I saw the look on your face." Li Yuhua knocked his hand away and looked at the little gold hairpin in his hair. Mu Anzhi scratched the bridge of his nose and told Li Yuhua roughly what happened.
"No wonder, let me just say, that's how it is." Li Yuhua complained to Mu Anzhi, "You should take the initiative to tell me these things, and you still want me to ask."
"I'm not a talkative woman. I keep talking to you about all these things all day long."
"Is this possible? When we get married, I have to be fully prepared."
"What are you going to do?"
"Of course I want to be the first among the princes and concubines." Li Yuhua's ambition was obvious. She pinched the last butter snail on the plate and bit off half of it. "When the three princes and concubines come in together, there will be competition.
I've never asked anyone to compare!"
"You can't tell. He's not tall but has a lot of ambition."
"What does ambition have to do with height? Besides, I'm not short either. I have to grow taller. I may be taller than you in the future!"
Li Yuhua, who thought he would grow taller, was stared at by Mu Anzhi several times because he ate a plate of ghee-soaked snails without even taking a few bites during lunch. Li Yuhua felt guilty after being stared at.
Mu Anzhi said, "Eat less snacks before meals from now on."
Li Yuhua said "Yeah" obediently.
Li Yuhua was cunning by nature, so he gave Mu Anzhi a piece of braised mutton and started a new topic to liven up the atmosphere, "Look at how nice the weather is today. It will be a sunny day when we get married. Third brother, you will come to welcome the bride."
"
"Silly, of course I will go."
"The clothes are all ready, but you have to check them carefully to make sure there are no mistakes."
"Crow's Mouth."
"This is called being prepared." Li Yuhua thought of something, "Third brother, I still have something to ask you."
"What's up?"
"You come to me the day after tomorrow." Li Yuhua said, "The dowry will be displayed the day after tomorrow, and relatives and friends will come over. Then the other women from the Lu family will also come. I'm not afraid to see them. It's just that I don't have any hair on my body at the moment.
Given the imperial title, it is inevitable to salute them when I see them. Do you want me to bend the knee to the Lu family? Come to me and we can stay outside."
"I have to go to the temple the day after tomorrow." Mu Anzhi didn't want Li Yuhua to salute the female members of the Lu family, so he said, "I'm here to pick you up. Didn't you say you also want to visit the temple?"
"Isn't it inconvenient?" Li Yuhua was keenly aware of the tone of Mu Anzhi's first sentence, as if he had other things to do when he went to the temple.
"No." Mu Anzhi put down his chopsticks, "Isn't this a big wedding? Go to the temple and tell the elders that you can go too."
Seeing that Mu Anzhi was suddenly not in a good mood, Li Yuhua diligently gave Mu Anzhi a piece of fish, "Third brother, I'll cook for you when you have time. The food I cook is very good, with all the color, flavor and flavor."
Mu Anzhi saw her chirping like a little bird, smiled, and continued to eat with her chopsticks.
Going home in the evening, Li Yuhua washed up and sent the maid away, leaving Grandma Sun alone in the room. He asked Grandma Sun, "The third brother said that we are getting married and we have to go to the temple to tell the elders the day after tomorrow. I think he seems a little depressed."
I didn’t want to ask more questions. Which elder is in the temple?"
Grandma Sun was startled. She looked around cautiously and asked Li Yuhua in a low voice, "Has Your Highness told the girl about anything else?"
Li Yuhua had already thought about his answer, "Just ask me to go with him. Then I thought of asking grandma if I need to prepare anything."
"Wear something plainer. The other three highnesses will prepare it. The third highness wants to take you to see Lady Liu. Her tablet has always been enshrined in Tianqi Temple." Grandma Sun sighed.
"Is the day after tomorrow the day of mourning for Lady Liu?"
"No. It should be about your wedding. Your Highness needs to tell Empress Liu." Grandma Sun sighed.
Li Yuhua nodded, knowing why Mu Anzhi was in a bad mood.
Because Li Yuhua and Mu Anzhi were going to the temple to worship Lady Liu, Mrs. Xu was the one who took care of the dowry. Mrs. Xu also prepared some paper money for incense candles.
We have this arrangement, otherwise we will have to change the date for showing off the dowry."
"That's okay. The third brother said that we are going to meet the elders. We need to tell the elders about our wedding."
"This is what it should be." Thinking of Queen Liu who died early and without happiness, Mrs. Xu sighed softly in her heart:
If the Liu family had not been defeated and Queen Liu had not been deposed, then the third prince today would be a legitimate prince!
